AIPMT PRELIMS 2001 Physics Newton's Laws of Motion MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A cricketer catches a ball of mass 150 gm. in 0.1 second moving with speed 20 ms⁻¹. Then he experiences force of : -

A

300 N

B

30 N

C

3 N

D

0.3 N

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The force experienced is given by F = Δp/Δt = (mΔv)/Δt. Here, m = 0.15 kg, Δv = 20 m/s, Δt = 0.1 s. So, F = (0.15 × 20)/0.1 = 3 N.
